CNR on Centos 6 & DHCP service issue

Hi All,
   I tried to install the Cisco Network Registerar on Centos 6. When I start the services I see everything working fine. The DHCP service doesn't get started at all. There is a issue while starting it.
Please let me know how to trouble shoot this and is LDAP mandatory for DHCP service to be started ?

Dear Amar,
i had exactly the same issues. After reading more or less Cisco Doku i found a small hint on a cisco web site.
---- snip ----
Red Hat Linux Installation
Installing Network Registrar on Red Hat Linux requires that you install the 32-bit OpenLDAP library; otherwise, the DHCP server may fail to start.
---- snap ----
In addidtion the install routine requested sun-java also in 32bit version.
So after all it runs on a 64Bit CentOS6 with these two 32bit applications.
Kind regards
Maik

  • DHCP service randomly stopping, when restarted scopes disappear

    I have DHCP and DNS running on two OS X 10.5.7 servers; one is a G5 dual 1.8 Ghz PPC and the other is a 2.8 Ghz quad-core Intel Xserve. This summer I've added VLAN scopes (staff and student wired & wireless) with half the available addresses in each subnet on one server and the other half on the other. An odd thing has happened several times now. The DHCP service will randomly shut down and when I restart it, the new scopes have all disappeared and the old scope is back as the only choice on the list, but not enabled. When I go to check the other server I find the same thing. I thought it was just a fluke the first time it happened and just imported the DHCP settings back in from a backup. It has happened two more times since then, about once a week. If anyone can shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.

    I too am having this issue.
    DHCP service will crash (after investigation I found that it was servermgrd that crashes) all the scopes are still there, then when I restart the service it wipes out all my scopes except the default one that is in there when you initially configure the service.
    Everything goes haywire, DNS seems to go down halfway, then I put the scopes back in, and at least DHCP rights itself.
    This is a serious issue, I have 5 scopes in this server. I also have one other server that only has one scope, but does not have this issue.
    All running 10.5.6 Server on Intel Xserves.

  • Windows to Mac DHCP Migration Issues

    We are migrating our DHCP and DNS services from a Windows server to an XServe. We have started the process and noticed that Server Admin does not provide a place in the DHCP service to put in a range of IP addresses to be excluded from being handed out. It only lets you do it on a individual computer basis. The problem is that we have over a hundred devices on our network with static IPs right in the middle of the IP range set for DHCP. (I inherited this design) Eg:
    Complete DHCP Range: 192.168.180.1 - 192.168.181.254
    Static IP Ranges: 192.168.181.1 - 192.168.181.100, 192.168.181.200-229, 250-254 etc
    The DHCP service on our Windows DC has a place to put in multiple ranges that can be excluded from DHCP so it is easy to define the complete range of our network and exclude ranges used for static IPs. I just don't see how to do this in OS 10.6. If it is not there on purpose then what is the logic behind this?
    The other issue we are having with DHCP is that the DORA exchange for client computers is taking almost 2 minutes to complete. Is this normal for DHCP in OS 10.6? I can take the same client laptop, pull out the ethernet cable and plug it into the existing Windows network and get an IP address in 45 seconds. We did this test with multiple new computers and they all took the same amount of time. There are no errors in the DHCP log.
    Any perspective for either issue would be greatly appreciated.

    this may not be directly helpful, but i have two related questions.
    if you've inherited these ranges, is there anything particular preventing you from changing them to make your life easier?
    if you're swapping these services to os x server, why, and would this be a good opportunity to change the ranges?
    in any of my clients' networks 45 seconds to get an address would be atypically long. there must be something else going on to cause such delays.
    what's the impetus to move dhcp and dns away from windows servers, especially if the services are working well enough?
    i wouldn't necessarily recommend using os x server just for these services. any linux distro with dhcpd and bind will do just fine and probably be a better investment.

  • DHCP Services migration using tool

    I am trying to migrate DHCP services from NW65 to OES2 using the migration tool.
    when I create the project in the tool , I am setting it up to do a Server level migration. It does not find the DHCP locator / Group Object when I browse to the context of the locator.
    It was suggested to me that it might be an ldap class mapping issue. i tried to go into iManage to create an ldap class mapping for DNIP:Locator to DNIPLocator. iManager is not doing anything when I click on the + button to add the class mapping !!!!
    I have had a look at the ldapmodify command to do this but it's a bit complicated.
    All I want is the DHCP to move off the netware server and onto the OES server.
    Please can someone help me

As such, the locator and group objects for NetWare and Linux are different objects using different classes and they have to be separate. You should never have to use class mappings or ldap tools. The Linux objects should have been created for you at the moment you configured DHCP for OES2/Linux. Let's just hope that during the OES2/Linux installation you did not point the DHCP configuration screen to the NetWare objects or else you probably will have a bit of a mess by now.
    Thanks for that.. I think the DHCP service did not install coreectly on the Linux server that is why i am having problems doing the migration.
    I think I will have to rebuild that server and get it all going again.

  • The DHCP service failed to see a directory server for authorization.

    We have two DHCP servers hosted on Hyper-V.
    But after shutdown activity at our DC, the servers gave an usual issue.
    "The DHCP service failed to see a directory server for authorization."
    We have rebooted number of time before getting this server into production but it never gave such kind of error.
    Also this time the local DC was shutdown.
    Please suggest the necessary steps to be taken.

    Hi,
    The authorized DHCP server contacts a domain controller every 60 min to detect/redetect his status. Maybe your DHCP has tried to reach the DC which was offline thus throwing that error. Are you still having issues with DHCP server servicing clients?
    Once the server talks to a DC and checks that his authorized the service will start leasing IPs to clients.

  • DHCP relay issues - WLC4400 series

    Hi all,
    I'm experiencing some strange problems with my WLC 4400 – and hope you guys can give me a hand.
    There is an issue while connecting a WLAN Client to the WLC for the first time. I pinpointed the source of the problem to the dhcp, but I wondering why this happens…
    As stated above – the issue occurs only during the first time registration of a WLAN client with the WLC. If I do another registration right after the failed connection attempt, the session is established and I can start working in my network environment.
    Because we use 802.1x authentication, my first idea was that there is an issue – but the authentication process completes successfully.
    Another debug for the dhcp process showed an issue during the initial registration process. I'll paste an extract of the NOT working connection attempt below (DHCP DISCOVER msg and DHCP OFFER msg passed successfully – I'll focus on the DHCP REQUEST msg):

    Does anyone of you have an idea, why this happens? And why does this happen only during the first time login of every client? Or am I misinterpreting the debug output?!

    Hi,
    thx for your comment so far.
    I did some additional troubleshooting yesterday and I guess I fixed the problem. The management interface was configured with two dhcp server IPs (0.0.0.0 and 1.1.1.1).
    Within the Cisco documentation it is stated that the dhcp relay proxy feature uses a virtual IP 1.1.1.1.
    0.0.0.0    seems to be used for the internal communication.
    When I changed the dhcp address (primary & secondary) to IP 1.1.1.1 the problem was solved. We tested it yesterday evening and this morning.
    My assumption is that the virtual 1.1.1.1 IP is mandatory to match the dhcp responses to the proxy relaying feature. Or the WLC uses the DHCP addresses on the management interface to forward the traffic to the appropriate feature (where 1.1.1.1 triggers the proxy feature and 0.0.0.0 is used to forward the traffic to the internal dhcp service). But this is just a guesswork – I do not know the Cisco WLAN good enough to provide a valuable explanation.
    Cheers

  • How do I access router setup page if the router DHCP service is disabled?

    When I had DSL, my WRT54G was my DHCP master for my home network.  When I got AT&T U-Verse, their "gateway" became the DHCP master and also the wireless access point.  But the signal was not strong enough where I wanted to use it, so I hooked up the WRT54G again.  I discovered that if I connected the U-Verse gateway to the "Internet" port on the WRT54G Linksys, then my home network was split in two, which I did not want.  The WRT54G access point is physically somewhat distant from my wired computer, so I wanted to keep the U-Verse gateway as the DHCP master. (The U-Verse gateway is a router with four "computer" ports but no "Internet" port.)
    I followed instructions on the Linksys web site, and using my wi-fi connected computer I re-programmed the WRT54G to be "Disabled" as a DHCP server.  Then I powered down and physically connected the U-Verse gateway to a "Computer" port on the WRT54G.  This solved my problem:  my distant wi-fi computer now has a good signal, and both computers "see" each other.
    However, now I seem to have lost access to the WRT54G setup "web page."  Is it possible to access the innards of the WRT54G when its DHCP service is disabled?  Or would I have to reset the device to factory configuration and start all over if I wanted to make any tweaks?

    You can still access the router's web configuration pages even if the internal DHCP server is disabled and it is connected via a LAN Ethernet port to your upstream router. 
    Did you reserve and IP addresses on the Uverse router for static IPs?
    If you did, assign one of these to the Linksys router (LAN) and you will be able to access it from your LAN. Since you are not using the WAN port, the Linksys router will not pull an IP from the Uverse router. You are using the device as a switch. 

  • Internet DHCP/DNS issues with WRT1900ac

    I've had a WRT1900ac now for about 2 weeks and the problems seem to be escalating.  Need help.  And yes, I've already read dozens of threads about these issues and nothing seems to be working.
    Most of the problems seem to be centered around this DHCP/DNS issue that so many have been reporting.
    First, the symptoms:
    Galaxy S4 phones when connected via wifi have some apps that don't update (facebook and google play)
    Some computers (both Win 7) will connect to the network just fine, both wired and wireless - but won't be able to get to the internet
    I've spent the last 2-3 days of my life reading forums and trying all sorts of things to get this to work properly (like my old router) and I'm still stuck.  Some things I've tried:
    Firmware is up-to-date (latest version: 1.1.8.164461)
    Manually assigned static DNS in router config settings (connectivity -> local network) to various combinations including the router address, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4, 75.75.75.75, 75.75.76.76 (I have comcast), OpenDNS addresses, etc.  I read that the router address is not needed, so I stopped including it.
    I manually assigned IPs and DNS on the Galaxy S4 phones and that seemed to work... but also seems unnecessary.
    I've reserved DHCP addresses on the computers in question, that didn't seem to work, I also manually set DNS on one of the comupters (can't on the other... long story/not my computer) and that worked for a while and then stopped working.
    The only way to get one of the computers on the internet now is to turn on the guest network (even though the computer is hard wired to the router), connect, and then the wired network works.  No clue why this is, but my guess is that it needs the guest network for DNS, then it fails back over to the wired network.  Once that happens, I can actually turn off the wifi on the computer and everything works great... until I reboot.  Key point: I can't change any settings on that box other than entering in SSID/passphrase info for the wireless connection.  I can connect to the regular (non-Guest) wifi just fine - I just can't ever get to the internet.
    I've tried massaging DHCP settings on the router until I'm blue in the face - Static DNS, reserving DHCP addresses, hell I even put one of the computers in the DMZ to see if that would work and it still can't connect to the internet (it's worth noting that with my old router, Linksys WRT310N, the setup was literally plug-and-play - no hassle with any of this).
    I've tried countless router reboots, factory resets, turning off my modem and router for 2+ minutes, and nothing is working.
    I even read somewhere that if you modify your DHCP settings at all that the WRT1900ac stops doing DNS properly and breaks, so I even tried several "hard" factory resets and used all the default DHCP/DNS settings.  And it worked... for a few hours.
    Seriously, I'm at my wit's end.  I'm out a lot of money on this thing and it's been one headache after another.  Please help.

    I think for most people its a bad idea to hold out that hope, lol. It seems like a great piece of hardware but if you really need a router and don't want to have to 'play' with it, its probably not a good choice. I have an EA6900 that I am very happy with but it has the same restrictions as far as DNS and I really hate the idea that I am forced to use the smartwifi portal. I would really like for them to give me a choice of the old gui or the new one and let ME decide. Lots of routers to choose from out there now and new ones seem to be coming out all the time so do some reading and see if something suits you better. Good luck!

  • Windows Deployment Services Issues

    i have a Windows deployment Services server running , and at the same server i am running dhcp as well as dns server. the network series is 10.241.0.1 to 10.241.0.105 , questions:
    Q: if i want the dhcp server to offer ip address in the network of 10.241.1.1 is it possible or i need to take the dhcp server in the network series of 1. 
    Q: sometimes there is a problem in wds , the client pc says no dhcp proxies were offered, how do i resolve that ?
    Q:While entering the scope in the dhcp server, the dhcp server says the IP is overlapped or invalid ip address, any solutions ?
    Q: i have multiple operating systems to deploys via network, so how is that possible , should i create a new image group or can i add the images in the same images and will it ask during the startup ? i tried by adding the other os to the group , the first
    os gets booted and installed but when i select the second operating system says, wdsclient error, no dhcp offered , , , , and so.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I list your questions and the suggestions for each question as bellow:
    Q: if i want the dhcp server to offer ip address in the network of 10.241.1.1 is it possible or i need to take the dhcp server in the network series of 1.
    If there are 2 network, 10.241.0.1/24 and 10.241.1.1/24, and you want the DHCP server (which is belong to network 10.241.0.1/24 ) to provide DHCP service to clients on network 10.241.1.1/24. You may configure a DHCP relay agent on network 10.241.1.1/24, in
    order to forwarder DHCP messages between clients (which are on network 10.241.1.1/24) and DHCP server. Detailed information about how to configure DHCP relay agent you may reference the link:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd469685.aspx
    Q: sometimes there is a problem in wds , the client pc says no dhcp proxies were offered, how do i resolve that ?
    On the client which says no DHCP proxies were offered, open CMD, type “ipconfig /all” and hit Enter, check to see if it obtains the correct parameters. If not, type “ipconfig /release“ and “ipconfig /renew” to renew IP address.
    Q:While entering the scope in the dhcp server, the dhcp server says the IP is overlapped or invalid ip address, any solutions ?
    On a DHCP server, you can create only on scope for a subnet. If you have created a scope from 10.241.0.1 to 10.241.0.105, with subnet mask 255.255.255.0, then a scope with network ID 10.241.0.0 can’t be created. You may use
    Exclusions to resolve this problem. If the problem still exit, please provide the scope and relate parameters you want to add, and the exiting scope you have already added on the DHCP server.
    Q: i have multiple operating systems to deploys via network, so how is that possible , should i create a new image group or can i add the images in the same images and will it ask during the startup ? i tried by adding the other os to the group ,
    the first os gets booted and installed but when i select the second operating system says, wdsclient error, no dhcp offered , , , , and so.
    You must have a working DHCP server with an active scope on the network because Windows Deployment Services uses PXE, which relies on DHCP for IP addressing. Make sure that your DHCP implement is working and let us resolve the above 3 problems first. Besides,
    you may reference the link for detailed information about Windows Deployment Services Getting Started Guide:

  • How can I make DHCP Service automatically assign IP addresses?

    We decided on using OS X Server's DHCP service rather than depend on our router to dole out IPs. Here's the size and shape of our local subnet:
    Range: 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.7.255
    Mask: 255.255.248.0
    Router: 192.168.1.1
    DNS: ....etc...
    We're trying to have the DHCP block managed as 192.168.2.0 through 192.168.2.255. Maybe I'm missing something, but shouldn't DHCP automatiScally assign IPs in that range every time someone plugs in a computer? Right now we're having to enter MAC + IP static maps manually into Server Admin, which is a major pain. How can we fix that so it becomes automatic?
    Here's how DHCP service is set on our quad-Ethernet Xserve Xeon. en0 / en1 / en2 / en3 are all set up the same, but only en0 is checked:
    GENERAL:
    Subnet Name: Our LAN (en0)
    Starting IP Address: 192.168.2.0
    Ending IP Address: 192.168.2.255
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0
    Network Interface: en0
    Router: 192.168.1.1
    Lease Time: 4 hours
    DNS Servers:
    192.168.1.100.... etc.
    Default Search Domain: ourdomain.private
    LDAP:
    Server Name: (blank)
    Search Base: (blank)
    Port: (Leave blank to use the default port)
    [ ] LDAP over SSL
    URL:
    WINS:
    WINS/NBNS Primary Server: 10.0.1.20
    WINS/NBNS Secondary Server: 10.0.1.21
    NBDD Server: 1.0.1.22
    NBT Node Type: Not Set
    NetBIOS Scope ID: (blank)
    I'm stuck.... I thought all I'd have to do is define a suitable range, like the 256 addresses in the middle of our DHCP block, but it's not enough. Your help is certainly appreciated.

    This morning I stumbled onto the solution (at least a partial solution). I noticed in /var/log/system.log that there were warnings to the effect of "Hey -- you've got disabled DHCP ports that have conflicting ranges with your enabled DHCP port." Previously, I hadn't thought this was a major error, but when I deleted the three disabled ports from DHCP (en1, en2, and en3) and restarted DHCP then everything started working correctly. Hosts that were previously not getting IP addresses assigned because they weren't listed in Static Maps are now getting addresses.
    The log entries looked basically like this:
    Apr 19 09:54:38 myserver servermgrd[50]: servermgr_dhcp:bootp config:Error:Subnets 'My LAN (en2)' and 'My LAN (en0)' have overlapping ranges: '1\

    : and so on
    The next problem I need to work through is why there's huge amounts of DHCP-related traffic in the logs. It's clogging up with stuff like this:

    This is happening REALLY fast. Every second there's a block of log entries like the above. I don't get it because I've set the lease times to 4 hours. I'll reset the leases back to 12 hours, but I don't understand what's causing the rapid fire log entries.
    Perhaps the smart thing to do at this point is to reboot the server.
    To answer some of your specific questions:
    Q: Have you tried specifying the range as 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.7.254 instead? Please don't take this the wrong way but is the service actually running?
    A: Yes, definitely up and running. Hosts that are in the static map were getting addresses. After deleting the three disabled Ethernet ports with conflicting ranges, I'm also seeing hosts that have not been entered into static maps appearing with dynamic IP addresses, which is what we wanted.
    Regarding the suggestion to set the network range to 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.7.254: That's the range the way it was originally set, but I thought what the range was supposed to be was the smaller block of addresses you wanted DHCP to draw from out of your total subnet. I may be wrong, but doesn't DHCP service already know your total network size from the network mask? [255.255.248.0 in our case] This implies that our subnet ranges from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.7.255 (including base and broadcast addresses at both ends).
    My thought was that the "Starting IIP Address" and "Ending IP Address" wanted to be the range of addresses in that that I wanted to use as a pool for DHCP. Hence 192.168.2.0 through 192.168.2.255. We have devices with static IP addresses on our network (servers, printers, and our VoIP phone system, mostly) on 192.168.0.xxx, 192.168.1.xxx and 192.168.3.xxx, and if DHCP doubly assigns addresses in these ranges to our workstations, then we're in big trouble.
    Q: sudo serveradmin fullstatus dhcp
    A: ...that produces the following output now following deletion of the DHCP ports with conflicting ranges:
    fannxfile:log root# serveradmin fullstatus dhcp
    dhcp:setStateVersion = 1
    dhcp:servicePortsAreRestricted = "NO"
    dhcp:numConfiguredStaticMaps = 43
    dhcp:dhcpLeasesArray:arrayindex:0:timeLeft = 12201
    dhcp:dhcpLeasesArray:arrayindex:0:clientID = ""

  • "No Service" issue after updating iOS 8.1

    My iPhone 5 is really giving trouble after updating all iOS 8.01, iOS 8.02 & iOS 8.1. Cellular network is come to halt, "No Service" issue is regular and i am not able to use my iPhone 5 as phone. 
    Please help me out else i have to switch to some other phone.

    I have similar problem but with a 6:   bought new iPhone 6 four days ago, phone and 3G signal were fine in UK from Sat to Mon.   Yesterday, I traveled to Belgium and have had 'no service' problem since.   I am carrying a Nokia feature phone which is locked on to local network and working fine.  
    If I power off the iPhone and power on, it comes back and joins the network.   Five or so minutes later, it has dropped the network and will not re-attach if I put in/out of flight mode; needs power reset, and then drops again.
    It is conceivable that this is a carrier issue but given that Nokia is fine and all the postings that I'm finding on various discussion sites, then I feel that it is an iOS issue.   I'm booked in to visit the Apple Store at the weekend.   My previous iPhone 4S was running iOS 7 and had no such problems.  
    So, carrying an expensive brick at the moment and hoping for an iOS update that will resolve this. 

  • No service issue and poor battary life on iphone 5?!?!?!?!?1

    cmon Apple./I have had my iphone 5 for over a month and keep getting this no service issue,..,the battary is terrible,.wont even last 8 hours with light browsing and I ahve used all the battary saving tricks,.I dont ask for much from this expensive gadget,.I just use it to text call and look at the net,.all three of which I have had problems with from day one!!!!! My iphone 3gs which I had for 3 years never gave me one problem?I have read countless threads on this issue,.please can you sort it out of help or offer a refund,.I am actually wanting to go back to my 3gs its got so bad and I am tired of reading all day to find a solution,.Apple used to just work!!what happened?

    Went to apple again. Same problem. Drains 5% an hour on standby with everything shut and airplane mode. They said this is "normal" and REFUSED to replace my phone as the battery health was normal. They say, "The hardware is ok, so we cannot replace the phone". I had them do a full restore from recovery mode. DId not help.
    Just to reiterate. I have done EVERYTHING- restore, full restore, shut apps, turned of location services, wifi, network, push mail, BG app refresh and reduced motion and set auto-lock to 1 min. Even auto-brightness is off and screen is at 30% brightness.
    Now I am stuck. Poor battery and uncompramising apple. This is perhaps making me anti-apple from an apple fan.
    Just wanted to ask, are such usage times and standby times normal? They are much less than what apple claims.

  • IPhone 5 No Service Issue

    I posted this in the ATT forums but haven’t heard back.  Thought I would give it a shot here.
    Short story – has anyone with an iPhone 5 had “No Service” issues with ATT and been able to fix it?
    Long story – A couple of months ago they upgraded the towers to LTE and now the service is horrible.  Whenever my phone switches between LTE, 4G, and E it goes No Service first.  It is constantly switching so I cannot complete a phone call lasting longer than a minute.  It will also sit in No Service for extended periods since the tower upgrade.  I am the only one in the house with an iPhone 5.  The other phones are not experiencing this issue.
    Has anyone had a similar problem?   How did you fix it?
    I have called multiple times.  I have emailed.  I have chatted.  I have received no help on this issue.  A member of my family plan called them yesterday about this issue.  They said they would call me back on her phone at 7 to troubleshoot my phone.  They never did call.
    Additionally, I have other problems since the “upgrades.”  The data usage is way off.  I have used a data counter and ATT is claiming I’m using considerably more than my counter shows.  I have tried to get credits for this but they say we will give you credits after we fix the phone.  They never fix the phone though so I never get the credits.  It’s like some weird Kafkaesque Catch-22.
    I am really so sick of the whole situation that I just want to switch to a different carrier.  I don’t want the cancellation fees though and I want to port my numbers.  I would think I wouldn’t be subjected to the fees because the service doesn’t work, but I’m sure there is some weird catch to that as well.
    Thanks for any help

    Since you didn't tell what troubleshooting steps you took, if any, do the followning steps:
    1. Reset phone (no data loss): press both home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
    2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    3. Replace SIM card from AT&T
    4. Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
    5. Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup.
    6. Warranty service from Apple.

  • IP or DHCP address issue with VPN

    setup: Mac server 10.6.8, VPN service L2TP, Airpot Extreme software fully updated in company LAN set to DHCP: IP range is 10.0.0/24, DHCP service is OFF in server admin...
    VPN IP range is 10.0.0/24
    I noticed sometimes when I VPN into my company network via L2TP (which I do IT support for) that someone on the company LAN gets a notice that another device on the network is using the same IP as their machine.
    All clients in the company LAN are set to DHCP and the remote connecting Mac is set to DHCP, and the remote LAN is a different network than the company LAN.
    This instance once interrupted remote server access (via VPN) because the remote connecting client somehow attain the IP of the companys' Drobo File server , which itself has a manual IP.
    Do I need to set the VPN IP range to a different scope than the company DHCP range? ie. Company DHCP range (in AE) to 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.200 and in VPN IP range settings 10.0.0.201 - 10.0.0.254
    Is there a setting I've missed?
    Can anyone help?
    Thx

    Do I need to set the VPN IP range to a different scope than the company DHCP range? ie. Company DHCP range (in AE) to 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.200 and in VPN IP range settings 10.0.0.201 - 10.0.0.254
    Yes, You need TWO pools of IP addresses in your LAN.
    One is kept by the DHCP server and addresses from this pool are assigned to DHCP clients on the LAN.
    The other range is handled by the VPN server and clients connecting to the VPN are assigned one of these addresses. VPN clients do NOT get a DHCP address from the LAN DHCP server.

  • Urgent! DHCP service stop, server lose its IP...

    Hi all,
    I have a serious problem:
    My Macmini Server (late 2010) firstly suddened stop lease IPs event I restart Macmini, restart DHCP service... OK, I set clients (Mac, window) to use static IP, its work for a day and now the server even lose its IP. It is mean I can not ping to server, cannot have Internet, can not share file... just a nice, deadly box!
    At home I can still use SSH to connect to that server and when I use ipconfig:
    server-001:~ Xadmin$ ipconfig getifaddr en2
    get if addr en2 failed, (os/kern) failure
    server-001:~ Xadmin$ ipconfig getifaddr en0

    - hostname appear is OK when I check it through ssh
